Digital textile printing technology has become one of the production textile printing processes since introductions of production digital printing systems in early 2000's. However, over a decade since the introductions of the technologies, current utilization of digital printing technologies in the industrial textile printing sector is still small in contrast with the popularity of conventional textile printing systems. This paper focus on the current state of digital textile printing in terms of engineering, business and design based on empirical research, including international case studies and field trips over the past 10 years. The supply chains from engineering to user standpoints (mills, printing service operations) will be investigated. At the same time, the emerging new field of Surface Imaging, will be ascertained.
